- communities.
- coaching programs.

Watch for:

- monthly cost.
- product type limits.
- too much LMS structure for simple downloads.

## Checkout and file delivery tools

Examples include SendOwl, DPD, and payment-link tools.

Best for:

- embedding checkout elsewhere.
- technical sellers with existing websites.

Watch for:
